Dang I wanted to see the wicking and removal from the mold. Not to mention I don’t have a power saw so this method would be a much bigger investment for me 😏
Yes and it’s true those molds are expensive this is one way I can make them old thanks to this video was wondering what size wick did you use? It would’ve been nice if you should’ve shown how to take the candle out Nice video
Aw i cant thank enough to you ive been looking for everywhere big pillar molds never able to find it .So defo will do that ..You saved my potenncial business thank you All the best 💗
What did you do so that it would not leak at the bottom where you peaced the hole for the wick and how did you get the candle out of the mold? Thank you.
YOU SIR, Are #TheBest Candle Maker, Video Maker😅 On UA-cam You make everything so simple & clear for me to understand, especially since I'm a newbie. Lots of love from the Caribbean island of Trinidad & Tobago 💙✨💜 p.s you got some awesome power tools😍
Thanks For Sharing This Helpful And Easy To Follow Information. I Am A Novice With Candle-making, which has recently become my new hobby. I have the expensive prices for the "regular" candle molds. This video demonstrates a great option for the novice and for the experienced home candle maker.
I tried this with small diameter and even with mold release it didn't come out well. Also, scrupulous cleaning may be necessary, because these pipes are often stored on end and dust and grit from the hardware store will get inside. Works well with larger diameter. Another caveat, if you clean out the molds, the PVC will scratch deeper than metal so you have to be careful how you do it.
Don't know how I stumbled across your videos, but glad I did. I'm actually looking at one of the starter kits you used in a video. And after checking out your etsy store I see we're neighbors, kinda. I'm in Murfreesboro. Anyway I really enjoy the videos, keep up the good work Sir.
Great idea! That would be nice to show us how to remove the candle from the mould. I have a question for you: do I need to spray the mould before pouring the wax in? Tfs!
Excellent Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Chireetler Earning Maker Rule (probably on Google)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for learning how to make candles for fund or profit without the normal expense. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my friend Sam after many years got astronomical results with it.
Just wonderful, I've been looking for "how do you make wax melts smell stronger?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Panlijah Inconceivable Position - (do a google search ) ? It is a good one of a kind product for discovering how to become a candle making master and turn a profit without the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my brother in law got great results with it.
where did you get the little plastic knock outs? great idea going to make my own for sure, I'm a wood worker so i already have all the tools i need, thanks for the video.
I've been looking for a pvc pipe molding video and finally found yours ty for making this video first of all.. but I'm curious if you could take the silicone/cornstarch with food coloring video you made to wrap around a pvc pipe to make a resin mold?... and would you need to put anything on the pvc pipe so the silicone won't stick to it?
A silicone based mold release spray will definitely make your life a lot easier. Without it, the candle will still come out of the mold, but it can sometimes be a huge headache! The spray isn't all that expensive and will last quite a while. Here is one I found on Amazon amzn.to/2WRyeZ9
Hello im a big fan of tours but ive never done a candle with this home made mold do u use anything so it could off the mold orvdoent come it out essily?
Hi! Thanks you for another fantastic video. Do you think a eco soy wax would do well in a pvc pipe? I am anxious to make one. Can you tell me which wax would be the best to use when using a pvc pipe.
Rosa Medina I use mold release with any kind of mold. I had to wrestle with this one just as much as any other mold, especially because of the length. But 3 minutes in the freezer and it slid right out 👍🏼
I don't know if you're still answering questions but can I break up a pillar candle and melt it and put it in a mold? Will it still come out? It's an old pillar candle that I would like to remelt
It's great idea but I don't have any power tools so it doesn't become a cheap option anymore. I will have to stick to buying molds. Love that candle, did you use parrafin wax?
Hey! Love your videos, thanks so much for sharing! I have a newbie question... regarding pillar candles! I've read about adding a 'wax improver' for paraffin candles to ensure a thicker colour. My question is, is this product necessary if im adding a colouring already? Appreciate your help!
Not ignorant at all. It might be a little hard to explain in writing. But make sure you check out my next video, which is on Making Basic Pillar Candles. That video should post on Thursday.
I do make decent money between my Etsy shop and craft fairs, not enough to retire on just yet lol, but my YoY analytics are getting better and better. Cost cutting gets easier as you grow your business, mainly because you are able to, or at least have the need, to buy your supplies in bulk. Another cost saving tip would be to buy as locally as you can to save on shipping, which can be a killer! But to be honest, when you are first starting out you can definitely hemorrhage money if you're not careful because of all the waste and mistakes that will be made. Which is part of the reason I started this channel, to share the knowledge I've gained and try to help others from making the same mistakes I did.
@@TimberRidgeGifts Hi Tim i got a neighbour to pop em in for me i guess i wasnt using enough elbow grease! but i had a little issue with leaking i guess where there wasnt sufficient pvc cement coverage so i had to go back in with the q tip and seal where the leak was .. thanks a lot for replying
Me also have problems to get the candle out of the mold. So I appreciate answer how to do that. I tried to apply oil on the mold before pouring the wax inside. It helped but the surface of the candle was not smooth then (like the oil mixed with the wax).
It would have been even better if you’d shown how you do the wicking, and how you unmold it. I’m pretty sure something like that would need some “coaxing.”
Rookie here! Can you leave the wax in the mold and use the pvc as the vessel? When lit, will that be a problem for the pvc/melt/catch on fire? Thanks in advance.
Amazing idea!!! I left the cap unglued, it's even easier to open the mold and push the candle out!
I was wondering if that would work, thank you!
me too.. thank you!
Dang I wanted to see the wicking and removal from the mold. Not to mention I don’t have a power saw so this method would be a much bigger investment for me 😏
You can use a hacksaw to cut the pipe. It's just a bit harder to get a straight cut.

Thank you so much, greetings from Mexico!
Could you explain how the candle was removed, since it wasn't shown on video?

Hi,did you get the answer how to take out the candle out of the mould?thank you.
I love your videos! Thank you for the insight 😊
What a great money saving idea.
Thanks for watching!
Such a smart idea 😮
where did you get the little plastic knock outs? great idea going to make my own for sure, I'm a wood worker so i already have all the tools i need, thanks for the video.
Your videos are the best! Thank you.
Thank you for the helpful video
How did you get the mould out fully? Does it detach easily or oil the sides? Or pull from the wick?
I've been looking for a pvc pipe molding video and finally found yours ty for making this video first of all.. but I'm curious if you could take the silicone/cornstarch with food coloring video you made to wrap around a pvc pipe to make a resin mold?... and would you need to put anything on the pvc pipe so the silicone won't stick to it?
Great vid, both the content and delivery. Thank you!
Do you use release spray in the pvc mold? I wish you had showed how you took the mold out of the pvc pipe
What did you us to make sure the candle come out without any issues, any wall treatment?
Wow that’s really cool. I didn’t know you could do that. Thank you so much sir.
How do you prevent the wax from sticking to the inside of the PVC pipe?
Would also like to see you unmold the candle.
Tim,
Did you spray the mold with the release spray before you poured? If not, was the candle difficult to get out? Thank you!
A silicone based mold release spray will definitely make your life a lot easier. Without it, the candle will still come out of the mold, but it can sometimes be a huge headache! The spray isn't all that expensive and will last quite a while. Here is one I found on Amazon

Hello, can you make cement candles with the PVC pipe as well?
Hi, just subscribed, loved the idea for a mold, but I am trying to figure out a way to make a luminary pillar mold?? Any suggestions? (with a base)
How did you keep it from leaking when you poured the candle, because there is a drill hole made, great video
Thats what I was wondering
Use small amount of glue gun
Thanks so much for tip! Does the candle just slide out when done ? I’m not sure how to unmold
Hello im a big fan of tours but ive never done a candle with this home made mold do u use anything so it could off the mold orvdoent come it out essily?
How did you block the wax from coming out of the bottom?
How did you take out the candle??mean to say that didnt it stuck inside?
How did you get the candle out thats the part i wanted to see
man thanks a million man dag you saved me like crazy !!!!!!!!!!!!!! wowzers
lol Thanks! Thanks for watching!
Hi! Thanks you for another fantastic video. Do you think a eco soy wax would do well in a pvc pipe? I am anxious to make one. Can you tell me which wax would be the best to use when using a pvc pipe.
Straight Soy wax wont make for much of a pillar candle because it is so soft. Best to find yourself paraffin or a para-soy blend,
This was awesome. Thank you. How does this release? Do you spray the mold prior to adding the wax or does it just slide out on its own once set?
Rosa Medina I use mold release with any kind of mold. I had to wrestle with this one just as much as any other mold, especially because of the length. But 3 minutes in the freezer and it slid right out 👍🏼
Timber Ridge Gifts great. Thank you!
Thank You for this great idea!!!!!
so cool........so, do you have to spray the mold or anything?? I noticed you didn't show the unmolding part LOL..........
Hello plz guide me that .. can we also make concreat candles in this nould? If Yes, How will we get that out?
What kind of wax did you use in this particular video??? Very typical in that you didn't answer anyones questions, but I thought Id try.
I don't know if you're still answering questions but can I break up a pillar candle and melt it and put it in a mold? Will it still come out? It's an old pillar candle that I would like to remelt
Did u spray it before you put the wax
It's great idea but I don't have any power tools so it doesn't become a cheap option anymore. I will have to stick to buying molds. Love that candle, did you use parrafin wax?
Did you grease the pvc
How do we get the candle out once it is dry?
Thank you but how do u make a mould with designs? Not just a plain smooth one..
How long do I cure pillar candles for and do I wrap in plastic to protect them straight after making - how do I store
Thank you what a cool idea
The thick wall pipe is called "Schedule 40" pipe.
Awesome! I'm going to lowes or home depot lol
Tell them Tim sent you! I've spent a fortune at those places over the years, pretty sure they know me by name lol
You are amazing helpfull dude 👍🏻
Best wishes
Thank you
But how did you get it out is my question? Why didn't you show that part, would have been great to see.
wow thank you....thank you
Was the candle easy to remove? Did you spray it with mold release?
Awesome video thank you
Wow! Awesome 👏🏻 I
Hey! Love your videos, thanks so much for sharing!
I have a newbie question... regarding pillar candles! I've read about adding a 'wax improver' for paraffin candles to ensure a thicker colour. My question is, is this product necessary if im adding a colouring already?
Appreciate your help!
what is that machine called that our used to cut in half?
Can you explain how to get the candle out of the homemade PVC mold?
Greetings
Please forgive my ignorance.
How did you wick this mold
Not ignorant at all. It might be a little hard to explain in writing. But make sure you check out my next video, which is on Making Basic Pillar Candles. That video should post on Thursday.
Timber Ridge Gifts
Thank you!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awesome!
Do you use mold release or something like that?? Mine get stuck
what oil or flavour did you add to get this candle colour ?
Did you have to spray the pvc mold
What dye did used to make it red.. please let me know…
Hey how did you manage the which you drilled while pouring the wax
Hole*
once the wick is threaded through it, you need to seal around it with wick putty to ensure it doesn't leak.
Ohh! Thanks i got it
I would of like to see you remove it. How did you get it out?
If I have a candle and want to make a mold of it, is that possible?
What do you recommend for a pointed tip.
What kind of wax did you use for this candle?
hi Tim the knock out end caps arent fitting in my 3" pipe .. what do i do ? i made sure the caps were for a 3" pipe
hello, what type of wax do you use for the pillar candle?
what can I use for a 5" taper candle?
How did you get the candle out of the mold?
So do you make decent money making candles or not really? Also how do you keep the cost down?

I thank you for the offering
But I did not know how the candle was removed from the cylinder after the drought
great video, but I can barely hear you and i have volumes on max
do i need to use 2 " knock out end caps to fit in the 3" or am i using the correct size ..see below comment
hmmm, the 3' caps should fit the 3' pipe. send a picture to my facebook page and i'll be able to give you a better idea of what you've got going on.
@@TimberRidgeGifts Hi Tim i got a neighbour to pop em in for me i guess i wasnt using enough elbow grease! but i had a little issue with leaking i guess where there wasnt sufficient pvc cement coverage so i had to go back in with the q tip and seal where the leak was .. thanks a lot for replying
How did you get the candle out of your mold?
Mold release works wonders! If they are still being pesky, then a few minutes in the fridge should do the trick.
Thanks for the info, one small request, the sound on video very soft. Can you improve the sound? Will be appreciated
Hello, can we see how you unmould it please? Ta
do need mold release spray?
Yes. I would suggest it with any mold
Timber Ridge Gifts Ok. Thank Tim. 👍😉
I live in UK scotland I can't get the pvc pipe size I need and I need 78 x 150mm
I'm so happy your on here. I have learned sho much with you. Thank you Tim
Thanks for watching!
I want to start candle making business .plz tell me how can l start
Me also have problems to get the candle out of the mold. So I appreciate answer how to do that.
I tried to apply oil on the mold before pouring the wax inside. It helped but the surface of the candle was not smooth then (like the oil mixed with the wax).
I must Subscribe in ur channel, by the way nice hair cut 😉
It would have been even better if you’d shown how you do the wicking, and how you unmold it. I’m pretty sure something like that would need some “coaxing.”
What type of wax was it?
+Jeanette Home stuff KY143 paraffin pillar wax from Rustic Escentuals
Timber Ridge Gifts thanks
Sure wish you would of showed us how easy it was to come out once the wax dried.
Add Maryland to lists please
I've not been ably to find any suppliers from Maryland. Do you know of any?
@@TimberRidgeGifts nope. I was hoping you'd have some or 1
Rookie here! Can you leave the wax in the mold and use the pvc as the vessel? When lit, will that be a problem for the pvc/melt/catch on fire? Thanks in advance.
consult and to remove the candle there is no problem
3:48 oh my ears.
I cant hear
